Chapter 217 The ninth floor of the greenhouse ruins! And the first person in the server to awaken the perception system and intelligence system!
"Our enemy will not wait until winter is over and then march up to our trenches."
"They are predators, best at sneak attacks. If we hurry up, maybe after this snowstorm ends, their army will march to the northern suburbs of Qingquan City."
"My judgment is... early January, maybe even on New Year's Day."
After reviewing the new recruits of the Guard, Chu Guang took Liu Ding, Wrench and Vanus back to the Guard's station at Changjiu Farm.
There is a bunker-like temporary command post here, with a thick layer of snow covering it, and there is only one tunnel that can be entered.
The last batch of supplies seized from the looters included a hundred 100mm howitzers.
The total weight of these shells is 11 kilograms, including a two kilogram warhead, and the charge is a mixture of T-N and RDX.
If this shot hits it, the power will probably be quite astonishing.
Although they didn't know how many howitzers they had on hand, these shells alone were enough to make Chu Guang be more vigilant.
These predators are hard to deal with!
Currently, Shelter 404 relies on the information obtained by old friends on the forum and the continuous exploration of 30 professional life players with chemical industry-related experience, which can be regarded as lighting up the production process of RDX, but unfortunately the output is not
Not very high.
It is still too difficult to develop reliable heavy support firepower before New Year's Day. It is not just the barrel problem that needs to be solved, but also many problems including ballistics, and these are more than theoretical knowledge.
It needs to rely on the experience gained in actual combat.
It might be more practical to rely on the use of heavy artillery in the war with the bone-chewing tribe than to rely on mosquitoes' heartless rockets.
Wrench and Liu Ding glanced at each other subconsciously, with slightly confused expressions.
What is New Year's Day?
Although Vanus also didn't understand what New Year's Day was, his focus was not on such trivial issues, but on Chu Guang's prediction of the next round of the Predators' offensive.
Staring at the paper map hanging on the wall of the temporary command post, Vanus thought for a long time before speaking.
"If it were me, I would choose to launch the offensive in mid-January."
Chu Guang looked at him and asked.
"reason?"
Vanus said.
"This is out of caution. The snow on the road will make it difficult for trucks to move, and the logistics pressure will be greater than imagined. As a frontline commander, I first have to assume that you have evacuated all survivors in the northern suburbs who can be looted in advance.
They built good enough defenses in the settlement and fought us to the end with the determination to fight to the death."
"At that time, our troops will not be able to obtain any resources locally and can only rely on the supplies they carry to fight a tough battle that may drag on for a long time."
Focusing on an abandoned urban area in the northeast, Vanus continued.
"I will first establish an operational base, deploy artillery, then send out mobile troops, use the advantages of vehicles to harass your positions, direct artillery bombardments, weaken your defenses with multiple raids, and finally concentrate forces from multiple directions
Launch an attack at the same time."
Liuding and Wrench held their breath involuntarily.
If those predators really do this, this battle will undoubtedly be more difficult than imagined.
Chu Guang nodded thoughtfully.
"That sounds like a good idea."
Of course, he did not expect that the people of the Bone Chewing Tribe would be like the Blood Hand Clan, stupidly launching a suicidal charge towards his position, and then being cut down like wheat by the players squatting in the trenches with automatic weapons.
Harvest.
Those goblin-like creatures are very cunning, especially now that they have acquired the legion's tactics - even if they have only learned a small part.
but……
It's a pity that they met themselves.
This consumption method of continuous attack may be useful to others, but it is simply a dream to deal with players who only have one life every three days.
He only needs to guard the new industrial area located in the abandoned city and ensure the supply of weapons and equipment. Those plunderers will soon experience the nightmare of being dominated by the undead.
When necessary, he can even abandon the large factory, break the production equipment into pieces, and retreat into the endless ruins. Then the players will take advantage of their individual combat capabilities and start street battles with the looters in the city.
Noticing the not heavy expression on Chu Guang's face, Vanus raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise.
"It seems you already have an idea?"
"That's right."
"I'm a little curious, could you let me know if it's convenient?"
Chu Guang smiled faintly.
"It doesn't take many days anyway. You will know by then."
There were many ways he thought of, but the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and he couldn't tell which plan he would ultimately adopt.
After all, it also depends on which card the opponent plays.
Vanus didn't inquire, just shrugged.
After all, his identity is just that of a prisoner of war.
If Chu Guang asks for his opinion, he will express his thoughts and provide suggestions for reference. But if Chu Guang does not intend to let him know, from his position, he really shouldn't ask more questions.
But Vanus is still very curious, what does this man plan to do?
The opponent has 100mm howitzers, and they don't know how many they have.
In addition, the number of those looters is more than 1,000, and the number of vehicles is unknown. They have an absolute advantage in terms of equipment and troops.
They were not ordinary predators. After the two previous fights, the man in front of them obviously knew this too.
The odds of winning are actually not high.
But his unmoved expression was really unpredictable.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the temporary command post.
After getting permission, a guard in a black coat walked in from the door, put his right fist on his chest and gave a military salute.
"Report!"
Chu Guang's words were concise and concise.
"explain."
The guard said.
"The scouts we sent to explore the north discovered a patrol of predators in Yuanxi Town, just north of Changjiu Farm. They were suspected to be members of the Bone Chewing Tribe!"
After hearing the report, Chu Guang looked slightly surprised and immediately looked at the map on the wall.
Yuanxi Town is about 20 kilometers away from Changjiu Farm, adjacent to the north side of Yumu District. Administratively, it belongs to the southernmost township of Xizhou City, close to Xicheng District of Tianshui City.
This distance cannot be considered very close, but it is definitely not far.
However, what confused Chu Guang was why those plunderers appeared in Yuanxi Town?
Based on the marching route of those marauders, it is obvious that their station should be northeast of Qingquan City and south of Tianshui City.
Could it be...
Have they moved?
The expression on Vanus's face gradually became serious as he stared at the map.
"Master Manager, although I don't want to say this...but I'm afraid we have to prepare for the worst."
In the temporary command post, four pairs of eyes looked at him.
Chu Guang had vaguely guessed something, but he did not speak, but waited for him to continue.
Vanus paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled a breath of white air.
"The troops heading directly north of us and the looters in the southern suburbs of Tianshui City are obviously not the same group."
"What you will face is likely to be more than just a thousand-man team..."
"But two."
…
[Day 14 of Wartime Regulations]
After confirming the information on the VM, Lao Bai casually wiped away the mucus stuck to the steel arm guard and the fallen cilia from the moth wings.
“The difficulty of conquering the B9 floor is unexpectedly low.”
"After all, this is where the reactor is placed. There is no incubator and the area is not very large." Fang Chang put away the mechanical compound bow in his hand and said casually.
Four days ago, his level reached LV10, becoming the first agility awakener in the server.
Just as Lao Bai guessed, his main attributes increased by 5 attribute points, and the remaining 4 secondary attributes increased by one point each.
With up to 17 points of agility, he has almost three times the reaction speed of ordinary people, as well as dynamic vision.
And the skills he acquired are also very satisfying to him - similar to the bullet time in Max Payne!
This does not mean that he can become faster, but based on the bonus of agility attributes, he can make everything around him play in slow motion when he is highly focused.
Perhaps as long as his agility attribute is high enough, he might be able to see the bullet's trajectory clearly one day.
In any case, this can be regarded as a magical skill for a shooter.
Praise the planning!
Since unlocking bullet time, although his teammates have no intuitive feeling, Fang Chang feels that he is invincible.
The mission enters the final stage.
After carefully searching the blind spots on the B9 floor, Lao Bai used a melee dagger to clear away the devil moths that would die completely.
Ye Shi, who was walking behind, saw that there was no chance to shoot, so he said in a casual tone.
"What do you think there will be on the B10 floor?"
The wind walking aside thought for a while and said.
"I don't know, but I am sure that the devil moth's mother nest is there."
Ye Shi: "Are there moths as big as mutants?"
Gale: "It is unrealistic from an evolutionary perspective. The super size is not suitable for arthropods to survive...at least based on the oxygen content and gravity environment on the earth. However, this is not absolute. The wasteland is not
A normal natural selection environment, not to mention this is a game."
Having said this, Guangfeng suddenly paused and raised his head to look ahead.
"but……."
The group of people stopped, and in front of them was a closed gate.
Judging from the sign on the door that is similar to the power room on the B3 floor and the markings on the VM map, this should be the reactor.
Through a long and narrow transparent window, the cylindrical reactor in the room can be seen.
A reactor that is still working after two centuries of operation.
Even in the game, this is quite unbelievable.
From the looks of it, it shouldn't be boiling water.
"Is this a tokmak or a stellarator?" Ye Shi asked curiously.
Guangfeng thought for a moment and shook his head.
"It doesn't look like...it looks unprepossessing from the outside, even smaller than a nuclear fission reactor."
And much smaller!
Ye Shi chuckled.
"Maybe it's just that the operator simply didn't want to make it up... I thought it would be designed to be cooler."
"This design actually makes sense. After all, in the pre-war society depicted in the background of the game, the popularity of controllable nuclear fusion has continuously replaced fossil fuels, and in some fields has even replaced chemical batteries. Their understanding of energy technology is very important to
For us, it is like a black box, and it is more reasonable to present it in a simpler way than we imagined."
Bangfeng was very curious about what kind of thinking the operator used. After all, this involved an area he was familiar with.
However, he is a rational person and cannot risk the lives of his teammates.
What's more, he doesn't have the ability to break it.
To destroy the first wall that can block neutron rays, hundreds of kilograms of explosives would be needed at least.
This thing is not made of tofu.
The alloy door leading to the reaction chamber alone is at least half a meter thick, not to mention the wall, which is even made into a part of the load-bearing structure.
Even if this layer is blown down, it may not be able to scrape off a layer of skin from the reactor.
At this moment, Guangfeng suddenly felt a slight sting between his eyebrows, and then a burning feeling spread throughout his body, causing him to frown.
Ye Shi, who was standing aside, seemed to have the same reaction, and he let out an exaggerated scream and held his right arm.
"My giao, my king's power! That boiling feeling... is coming!"
Fang Chang glanced at him speechlessly.
"Can you please be more normal?"
Putting out his hand to support Ye Shi, Lao Bai noticed Guang Feng's condition at the same time. He was slightly startled, and his expression suddenly turned happy.
"Hey guys, we woke up two today!"
The first intelligence and perception players in the server were born at the same time!
All members of the Cow Horse team have landed in the Hall of Fame!
This achievement is simply unparalleled!
Fang Chang's face was also full of excitement, but they were in a moth's nest right now, so it was obviously not the time to be distracted and happy.
"Exciting! Anyway, let's go back and save a file first."
It is foreseeable that the forum will be lively for a while again today.
At Fang Chang's suggestion, the cattle and horse team touched the door on the next floor, then left the greenhouse ruins and returned towards the outpost.
After escorting his teammates to the entrance of the outpost, Lao Bai, standing under the concrete wall, suddenly stopped.
"I plan to go to the industrial area before going offline. You guys should go back and save the files first."
Ye Shi asked curiously.
"Industrial area? What are you doing there?"
Lao Bai said with a smile.
"I have been using LD-47 for a while, but I always feel that I cannot take advantage of the strength system. I plan to go to the steel factory to see if I can order two pieces of equipment suitable for the strength system to increase the firepower of our team.
"
Ye Shi and Bang Feng looked at each other.
Fang Chang understood what he meant and immediately became interested.
"I'll go with you! I won't have anything to do since I'll be offline for a while."
Lao Bai said with a hearty smile.
"Okay, let's go!"
…
New industrial zone.
As soon as Lao Bai and Fang Chang entered the door of the No. 81 Steel Plant, they saw Midnight Killer discussing something with Brother Tousuo.
"I want a chainsaw, can I get one?"
"If you can get a hammer, where can I get you a battery?"
Facing Brother Tousuo's eyes, he still refused to give up while killing the chicken at midnight.
"Anything that burns oil will do."
Hearing these light words, Brother Wusuo almost stopped spraying and continued to torture his soul.
"Do you have a diesel engine? Do you have a diesel engine?"
It’s outrageous that there are no diesel engines in the entire wasteland.
He has been having a lot of headaches over this matter these days.
Midnight Killer was slightly startled, he didn't expect it to be so troublesome, and scratched the back of his head.
"Then...I'd better buy an axe."
"..."
Brother Tousuo looked helpless.
A hatchet with a wooden handle only costs 10 silver coins, and that's after the price has increased.
After deducting raw material and labor costs, electricity costs, etc., the profit margin is only 10%, and you only earn 1 silver coin.
Selling axes is better than selling a few more bullets!
"I really recommend that you consider more modern equipment."
Just when he was about to find a reason to send Brother Killer away, he suddenly saw Lao Bai and Fang Chang at the door.
His eyes suddenly lit up, and Brother Tousuo immediately threw down his property to kill the chicken and rushed towards the two of them.
"Hey, Brother Bai and Brother Fang, why do you have time to come here?"
These two are big business owners!
Recently, it seems that the progress of the Greenhouse Ruins guide has been pushed to the 8th underground floor? Or is it the 9th floor?
Although the Niu Ma Team has never disclosed the specific reward, you can guess based on the difficulty of the maze. The reward is at least 4 digits.
Seeing Brother Wusuo abandoning him decisively, he was stunned at midnight.
Good guy.
Is it so real?
Looking at the old acquaintance walking towards him, Lao Bai said with a hearty smile.
"I'm planning to make some equipment. Is there a more powerful one?"
"Powerful... what do you mean? We have grenades here, as well as imitation Iron Fist rocket launchers, which are very powerful!"
"I'm not talking about the disposable explosives. What I mean is," Lao Bai tried to gesture with his hand, "Is there a gun with a larger caliber?"
While he was talking, Lao Bai's eyes suddenly fell on the unassembled quadruple cannon in the factory behind Brother Tousuo.
At this sight, Lao Bai couldn't move his eyes away. He immediately walked over and reached out to touch the thick and long barrel of the gun.
"Good guy, does this have to be 20mm?!"
Seeing that someone was interested in his work, Brother Wusuo immediately smiled and said confidently.
"20mm quadruple anti-aircraft gun! Three warheads are available. We call it an aerial cloth tearer, or 'Tearer' for short!"
This name sounds domineering enough.
Lao Bai happily continued to ask.
"How much!"
Brother Tousuo was stunned, coughed dryly and said.
"That's an NPC order... As for the price, a machine gun costs 3,000 silver and an armor-piercing bullet costs 20 silver. Please refer to it."
"What the fuck?! 3,000 silver?" Lao Bai's eyes widened.
The price of just such a machine gun is equivalent to 1.5 sets of Miner I exoskeletons!
And the price of the armor-piercing bullets is even more outrageous. One bullet is equivalent to 20 rounds of 7mm. If you fire three rounds, you can buy a Panzerfaust rocket launcher!
Although they have pushed forward the progress of 4 floors these days and have taken down the most critical layer B9, the money earned cannot be wasted like this.
After learning the price, Lao Bai immediately gave up the idea of buying one and was embarrassed to ask if it could be cheaper.
Seeing the expression on Lao Bai's face, Fang Chang's heart moved slightly. He walked forward and stared at the receiver for a while, and then suddenly said.
"Why is this machine gun so expensive?"
Just at this moment, another factory manager, Brother Levin, came out of the nearby workshop.
Hearing Fang Chang's question, he answered casually.
"It's already said to be a cannon, so why bother asking? The receiver in front of you alone costs at least 2,000 silver, not to mention the barrel and other parts in front of it."
Fang Chang said thoughtfully.
"So what if we need a... single-shot cannon? It doesn't need such a complicated receiver, and it can even be changed to a rotary lock and manual loading of bullets."
Brother Wusuo and Brother Levin were stunned for a moment.
"Changed to a rotating bolt locking...bolt?"
"Hand-loading?"
Seeing that the two of them didn't seem to understand what he meant, Fang Chang continued.
"What I just described may be a little inaccurate. To put it simply, it is to remove the fully automatic mode of this machine gun and make a weapon similar to a bolt-action rifle, which can be easily held in the hand and placed on the ground -
—”
"I understand what you mean. Is it right to omit the buffer and the repeating receiver?"
Brother Levin interrupted Fang Chang's words and touched his chin with interest.
"But that kind of gun will be very heavy, right? And the recoil force is probably not small. It may be a fixed tripod... Are you sure it can be used?"
After all, this thing is a cannon, not a gun.
If the shock absorbers and buffer devices are cut off to make a weapon that can be carried on the shoulder and fired, the shooter's shoulder will be destroyed after just one shot.
Unless the length of the cannonball is shortened and made into the size of the bullet.
But in that case, the 20mm diameter would seem a bit redundant, and it would have to be changed to 12mm.
However, after hearing Brother Levin's concerns, Fang Chang and Lao Bai looked at each other, with meaningful smiles on their faces.
It's probably a bit difficult for most people.
But are they ordinary people?
"You can install a bipod and gun stock for me, but I don't need a fixed tripod."
Lao Bai knocked on the welded breastplate of the exoskeleton with his fist, and a smile filled his face with a sense of security.
